I think you are making up stuff. Are you sure that you are a coach? What level do you coach? Division III. Zjori's game is NOT perfect but your assessment of his skills is wrong. My goodness.  ;) [/quote] Ignorance is definitely bliss, but I hope its not hereditary... ::) ::)...First off, It should not matter what level that I coach on, but the question should be "does your school offer scholarships, along with a plan to obtain a college degree"...I NEVER said something was WRONG with his handle or his mid range game, I know that at his size, if he MASTERS these skills, in addition to learning to become a defensive stopper that can guard the 1-4 positions, he will be a force to be reckoned with next season.  I have always said that I liked his game. Having done this for as long as I have, I have the ability to recognize if a kid has potential or not and Bosha does have the frame and skill level to be a really good college player...Once again, if family members such as yourself would stop campaigning for him to make some dumb "Super Gold" team in a [b]newspaper read by less than 5,000 people[/b] and encourage him to continue to work on his game and in the classroom in order to prepare for the next level, the rewards will be much greater than small town newspaper recognition.  My goodness.... ::) ::) [/quote] DV, stick with the basketball knowledge. That statement about the BE being read by less than 5,000 is comical at best. If you only knew how many papers those guys sell daily. ;)

Game is being played at Newton HS. Post updates here for tonight's game.

Given up 11 runs (2.75 per game) Tigers have scored 80 runs in their 7 district games (11.4 per game). This leads 21-3A. [/quote] I agree, Silsbee has the best lineup in the district, more kids have good swings than any other lineup I have seen, and I have seen them all.  But let's be honest about this, [b]most (a lot) of those run rules have been scored as a result of defensive errors[/b].  Now I credit the silsbee bats with putting the ball in play with force, force that created forced errors, but I also know from 2 games I have seen: silsbee vs Buna, and Wo-s that both losing teams had numerous defensive chances to stay in the ball game.  Admittedly, Silsbee does seem to be a little out of of everyone's league across the board athletically, and shouldnt they be with the enrollment numbers year after year.  Schools like BC and even Buna and OF to a degree represent themselves nicely in my opinion with nearly 1/2 the athletes to choose from.  BC definitely has the edge right now on pitching development and silsbee does have the bats which makes for the obvious great match up. Buna will not dazzle you with pitching right now, but they will fight till the end, their bats have been lively at times, but not consistantly, and the defense has yet to form an identity, boys have been playing all over the field.  I think they will figure it out.  Sure silsbee is the favorite, but by no means untouchable as some have suggested, they may want to be careful before they just start overlooking teams.......like Buna. [/quote] Boxscore for the Buna/Silsbee and WO-S/Silsbee:                     R      H      E Buna              0      4      [b]2[/b] Silsbee          11    8      0 5 innings                     R      H      E WO-S          2      3      [b]1[/b] Silsbee        12      9      2 5 innings Not sure that 2 and 1 errors in those games created most of those runs. ::) Also, in regards to enrollment of Bridge City and Silsbee. BC's is 775, Silsbee 825. That does not compute to BC having half the athletes as Silsbee. ;) BTW, I don't see anywhere that Silsbee is looking past Buna.

Congrats to all the players! Special congrats to the two Silsbee Tigers, Jordan Holmes and Chris Elam, for making 1st team. Great job!!

Anyone have the score from Saturday's game?

Silsbee has scored 80 runs in district play so far. Best offense in district. End of debate. ;) ;D

In my best HJ "speak", "Silsbee will be lucky to get 3rd in district next year." ;)

Best fish to eat is by far crappie (white perch). Nothing comes close!

Silsbee has scored 10, 19, 12, and 15 runs in last 4 games (avg. of 14 runs a game). Given up 11 runs (2.75 per game) Tigers have scored 80 runs in their 7 district games (11.4 per game). This leads 21-3A.
